Ability to print via ARC

Reported by cjava...@gmail.com, May 25 2016

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:46.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/46.0

Steps to reproduce the problem:
I've implemented a very basic print application, per https://developer.android.com/training/printing/html-docs.html

This works well in an Android tablet

What is the expected behavior?

What went wrong?
My print button has no effect (not even a crash) when running the app via Chrome ARC.

Did this work before? N/A 

Chrome version: 50.0.2661.103 (Official Build) (32-bit))  Channel: n/a
OS Version: 
Flash Version: 

I know that this may have already been reported in issue 434977, but that issue is not publicly accessible so I am not sure.

I am posting it now to report that this is a desirable feature.

Surely there's a plan to do this. Bug 434977 got closed for some reason. Maybe there's a new bug for ARC + printing?

For any developers out there waiting on this,  Issue 614851  would prove as a viable alternative. Opening a web page with a data: URI, can include onload=print to get a print page to work,

at least until we get proper integration in the ARC.

looks like this is the viable alternative only if you are printing the web pages from the specific urls.
Whats if you are already having data to print in android app, don't know how to send that data to chrome browser.
We have POS(Billing) android app, there to print order or orderItems we create full HTML content, which we are passing to android printing service. 
So if we already have HTML content, how to pass that content to browser so  it can print.
